Tidi Wades Into Crisis Between Hausa Traders, Ugbuwangue Community

Recall that there was little skirmishes involving Hausa traders and youths of Ugbuwangue community over a misunderstanding which led to a break down of law and order in the community.

The chairman in a statement by his Special Assistant on Media, Mr Francis Sadhere, said all parties have been called to the round table and have all agreed to sheath their sword for peace to reign.

He therefore urged residents within that area to go about their normal businesses as security agents have been deployed to maintain law and order in the community.
